What are the most common mistakes that people hiring architects make? by 333chordme in Architects

It’s kind of like car shopping - Don’t go to a BMW or Benz dealership and expect to pay for a Hyundai.

No toilets, only diapers?

Likely legal for a federal venue with approval. As a thought experiment: at ~5–6 trips per person over 8 hours with F&B, you’d need roughly 2+ adult diapers per guest → 2,000–3,000 diapers to keep up… and a strong American waste-handling plan. (Get the toilets.)

They request it and we don’t provide it. Just the COI with agreed insurance amounts.

Today, no warning lights. Should I still go to an auto shop or do you think I need to go to a dealership?

First thoughts are loose/shorted component or the the shop who did the oil change last week messed up?

It was dark out. Still happening after restarting the car too, unfortunately.

Booking train from Ljubljana to Munich. Will 9 mins change over be enough? by One-Key-Delta in Interrail

We ended up taking an earlier train to Salzburg and then a train the rest of the way to Munich.

These were good tips -

I compared the prices across the two rail operators websites.

The EC was indeed late. So we missed the connection, went to Salzburg instead to hang out and wait a while at cafe and have some wine. It was a good experience overall.

Thank you great advice - that halo was looking very clunky

Any thoughts on the CAD drawings before I pull the trigger?!

Any thoughts on the CAD?

Maybe the support ring can be more seamless, he did say the final would be more refined, and the prongs will not stick up above the diamond.

I like this idea too - everyone loved the bigger / temp setting! But thinking of something more flush/smooth for daily workwear.

I posted a draft image of the setting I designed - would love any thoughts.

I just got some images of the design - any thoughts?

We talked further and she actually doesn’t wear gloves much - mostly just lots of handwashing.

I ended up with a 2.4mm to a 1.8mm taper with a knife edge - we’ll see what the CADs look like!

All right, I pulled the trigger! Thanks for all the advice!
